Your Stars

AQUARIUS Jan 20 - Feb 18

The energies are still mildly deranged as Thursday’s solar eclipse takes another swing at your life. No point trying to make sense of it all. The trick here is to detach, remain centred and stick to what feels right. Save the big decisions for next week. The up-side is that money looks more interesting as opportunities for growth and wild ideas send you in a new direction. No rush.

PISCES Feb 19 - Mar 20

The goddess of love, romance and natural class has moved in so if you’re looking for love, put on your favourite smile. Meanwhile, if you’ve fallen behind at work, then you have. No one will benefit if you keel over from stress. Get some help, get creative, and find some people you can trust with your ideas. Fun and rewards are on the cards. After you’ve finished your work.

ARIES Mar 21 - April 19

The career is having another look at itself, this time without the emotional dramas. For you, Thursday’s eclipse is a good thing, bringing you back to earth and reminding you of your responsibilities. You may, for example, decide to spend more time with people you love and less with paperwork. You may begin to master time management. Or you may just sit and think about your life. Clearly. For a change.

TAURUS Apr 20 - May 20

Your world’s in a whirl as the planets of transformation attack from the rear. You find yourself asking whether you’re in the right job, relationship, life. You wonder whether you can trust anyone again. Well, although this is not the greatest week of your life, it will pass, leaving wisdom in its wake. Thursday’s eclipse will throw out anything you no longer need.

GEMINI May 21 - June 20

Don’t you fret your little head about the occasional conflict at work. Because if you do, you’ll wind up saying something you’ll truly regret. Look at it this way: everything is changing, and no one is sure what’s happening – you included. Everyone’s on edge and easily provoked. So don’t be the one to start. The facts will emerge and you’ll be fine – after Thursday’s eclipse. Calm down.

CANCER June 21 - Jul 22

There’s so much planetary reshuffling going on, it’s no wonder you’ve turned into a gibbering idiot. Cancerians, as you know, are already much too sensitive for their own good. So enough of that. Now’s your chance to use these magical new energies for your own ends. There’s another eclipse on Thursday. Use it to write down your dreams, light candles, say prayers. Global energies are ready to give you whatever you want.

LEO Jul 23 - Aug 22

Thursday’s eclipse tests all your relationships. It also checks out the hierarchies at work, tossing them in the air, and watching to see who lands where. Make sure you’re positioned where you’d like to end up. That aside, anything standing in the way of your happiness gets booted out of the way. And you won’t need to do a thing. Really interesting to observe.

VIRGO Aug 23 - Sep 22

No point wasting valuable time on petty annoyances that don’t make any difference. Just forgive the guilty parties and get on with your life. Better news is that relationships are back on the upward slope. And financially, plans are rushing forward without your help – even though it may not seem so at first glance. In short, concentrate on being adorable, and leave the rest to fate.

LIBRA Sep 23 - Oct 22

Deliciously hot property? Good for you. This is the perfect time not to back down. For once, someone besides you is willing to admit your worth and fight for your success. Which doesn’t mean prima donna is your pose for the week. Although, as it turns out, red carpets and screaming fans are not necessarily out of reach. But it might be more interesting to plan a trip, after Thursday’s eclipse rearranges your life.

SCORPIO Oct 23 - Nov 21

You’re extremely reluctant to appear vulnerable – which means your signals are defensive, to say the least. How about a white flag? Or an anonymous bunch of flowers? Actually, all you really need is to put down the ego and listen to your instincts. Pay attention to the whispers and you’ll find out exactly what you need to know – without hurting a single person’s feelings.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 22 - Dec 21

You’ve been running around like a mad thing and it’s time to catch your breath. While you’re at it, give some thought to the boring things, like servicing the car and paying the bills. Take this seriously. You’ll have some immensely irritating moments if you don’t. This is also a wonderful opportunity to get creative. Start by writing down your thoughts. Thursday’s eclipse will help.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 20

There’s progress to be made – as long as you can stretch yourself into thinking more laterally. You’ve come to take your numerous talents for granted and laziness is the inevitable result. Be very careful. There’s a life-changing eclipse on Thursday; not the time to get cocky. Partnership obligations are causing problems. Examine your motives and stick to the moral high ground. Most of all, stay sane.
